FX- UNIVERSAL AUDIO COMPACT SERIES ___ 4 NEW ___ cheaper pedals ...KILLER!

UNIVERSAL AUDIO UAFX Compact 

They took the best sounds from their award winning pedals dropped the bells and whistles and in my mind useless crap then dropped the price from the eye watering $320.00 USD each to $220.00 USD & the Comp only $200.00 USD 

The 1176 __  

It is a dead accurate take on the UREI 1176. UA owned UREI and paid for the research to perfect the original. A compressor found on 99% of all classic recordings. Page made use or running 2 of them together to get killer sustain. The UA has that as a feature. The most popular Comp going if you do not have a budget is the Origin Cali 76 Stacked at $420.00 USD. Origin were the first to do a UREI clone.  I find nothing in the video's to tell me this is not its equal at $200.00 USD 

The Orion __     

It is simply the UA Starlight full featured delay with the award winning perfect take on the infamous EchoPlex. a bullet proof choice for a rich, warm sound that unlike most digital delays never competes with your guitar. 

A shredders dream echo. I am so impressed I am thinking of dumping my Boss Space Echo for it. 

The Heavenly __   

Definitely a killer clone of the of those huge EMT 140 Plate Reverbs. First introduced in 1957 and are still being used. About 99% of the Reverb on every classic record has it on the guitar. Gilmour was hands on with it at the board. It is part of his sound. Everyone was made of a huge sheet of metal so minor difference made some very special as it is a true analog effect. The pedal has nailed a bright one and a dark one. A Plate is the perfect always on pedal to create a nice ambience that is never competing with the guitar or indeed 

washing it out. Unlike a Spring it never can get borderline trashy either.

The Evermore __  

Is an excellent Studio Reverb. But it has many brands of digital verbs as good. It is worth your attention but the other pedals are game changers for sounds difficult to do well let alone nail and keep affordable.

 

CONCLUSION ____

I must admit I am damn impressed. If I was picking a Compressor,  Reverb or (Plate) Reverb these would be at the top of my short list. They tick all the boxes. The sounds I love and the value for money in that 

I do not feel any compromise with any of them.
